Class services

Education, networking, job marketplace.

On-campus Recruiting and Company Days

One of the means that many companies consider the best for getting to know and assess MBA participants.
During the January-February period, companies come on-campus to meet up with students interested in activities in the field (group or individual internship project). During the September-October period companies present themselves to students and illustrate the permanent positions open to MBA profiles.

CV Book and on-line CV Database

The CV Book is an annual publication that collects the students' CVs in a structured fashion so as to highlight the "selling proposition" of each profile. It is sent to approximately 1000 Italian and international companies and is available upon request. There is also an on-line version with a search engine available for partner companies.

Job Posting

Thanks to special contacts with many companies, the CDS co-ordinates job-posting activities, publishes suitable job offers and work alongside partner companies in the various phases of recruitment up to the selection interviews.

Career Related Seminars

Career-focused seminars are a fundamental part of CDS activities. During 2008, CDS designed and organised meetings and seminars to prepare students for recruiters´ selections, to refine soft skills and complete awareness of job market dynamics.

The following areas were covered in the MBA 33 seminars:

  • CV and Cover Letter Writing
  • Business Case Interviews in Consulting and Finance
  • Competency Based Interviews
  • Presentation Skills
  • Getting an Internship in Investment Banking, Consulting or Industry Sectors
  • International Head-hunting Scenarios

Round Tables

CDS assists students in organizing round table panels, where outstanding guest speakers analyze market scenarios, sector trends and innovations.

Networking events
